There are some really interesting risks associated with electronic stability control, though. One system used by GM on the Corvette works by comparing the input from an inertial yaw sensor to the current steering-wheel angle. Any disagreement results in selective application of braking at one or more wheels, as needed to make the two sensors agree. Now: what happens when one of those sensors fails? http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c6-tech-performance/2336065-service-active-handling-consumer-action.html http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c6-tech-performance/2336065-... I wish I could find the video I saw earlier, where a Z06 doing about 90 MPH did a hard right turn into the wall at a drag strip for no apparent reason. I don't know with any certainty that the active-handling system was at fault in that incident, but it was enough to turn me off of the technology in a 500+ HP car.
